Good idea, but I've tried that without luck. I had blackbox call a
script which does a sleep for 5 seconds, and then launches irxevent.
No go.
I also tried modifiying the blackbox session file to launch irxevent,
killall irxevent, and then launch irxevent again. Still didn't work.
I can't reboot the system right no to test it, but perhaps some
combination of sleep and re-spawning irxevent may work? It just
doesn't seem right that I would have to try weird hacks like that to get
it to work, though.
